Unmoved
04:36

Scream at me
Yell at me
I remain unmoved
Pinch me
Slap me
Do what you want to me
I remain unmoved
Throwing all you can at me
Won't bring me out
I know you need a reaction
Or a glimmer of doubt
Circumstances don't permit me
A reaction to your rage
How I wish it wasn't so
But I'm trapped here in this cage
Scream at me (scream at me)
Yell at me (yell at me)
I remain unmoved
Pinch me
Slap me
Do what you want to me
I remain unmoved
Don't mistake my apathy for
Stoicism
I was like this long before
This cataclysm
I wish you could see your way
Right out of my sight
I don't the energy
To try win this fight
Scream at me (scream at me)
Yell at me (yell at me)
I remain unmoved
Pinch me
Slap me
Do what you want to me
I remain unmoved
Circumstances don't permit me
A reaction to your rage
How I wish it wasn't so
But I'm trapped here in this cage
Scream at me (scream at me)
Yell at me (yell at me)
I remain unmoved
Pinch me
Slap me
Do what you want to me
I remain unmoved
Scream at me (scream at me)
Yell at me (yell at me)
I remain unmoved
Pinch me
Slap me
Do what you want to me
I remain unmoved
Scream at me (scream at me)
Yell at me (yell at me)
I remain unmoved
Pinch me
Slap me
Do what you want to me
I remain unmoved

Trickle down effect
04:24
|
|||
Drip, drip, drip
It slowly feeds you
Opiates and saline
Drip, drip, drip
You're numb but aware
Nurse Ratched but less benign
Tap, tap, tap
So, can you feel it
Leeching off your emotions
Scratch, scratch, scratch
The blood flows freely
As you drink their potions
Calm and senseless
Drowsy, sedated
Willing and able
Downtrodden and hated
The trickle down effect
Leaves you breathless
The morphine they inject
Leaves you restless
Drip, drip, drip
It slowly feeds you
Opiates and saline
Drip, drip, drip
You're numb but aware
Nurse Ratched but less benign
Tap, tap, tap
So, can you feel it
Leeching off your emotions
Scratch, scratch, scratch
The blood flows freely
As you drink their potions
Calm and senseless
Drowsy, sedated
Willing and able
Downtrodden and hated
The trickle down effect
Leaves you breathless
The morphine they inject
Leaves you restless
Press the button for help
Someone will be with you
You have a number
In the queue

Alone in the dark
05:18
|
|||
What can you see
When you're with me
Are you alone
In the dark
I want to be
Your everything
But you're alone
In the dark
Who is right there
In front of me
When I'm alone
In the dark
I know it's you
The way you breathe
We sit alone
In the dark
And every day
You face away
So I'm alone
In the dark
You spend your time
Inside your mind
And I'm alone
In the dark
We are alone in the dark
We are alone in the dark
We are alone in the dark
We are alone in the dark
We are alone in the dark
We are alone in the dark
We are alone in the dark
We are alone in the dark
Alone in the dark
Alone in the dark
Alone in the dark
Alone in the dark

Sensory deprivation

Oh oh, sensory deprivation
Oh oh, to control a nation
Oh oh, sensory deprivation
Oh oh, to control a nation
Oh oh, sensory deprivation
Oh oh, to control a nation
Oh oh, sensory deprivation
Oh oh, to control a nation
Oh oh, sensory deprivation
Oh oh, to control a nation
Oh oh, sensory deprivation
Oh oh, to control a nation

Help me
04:58
|
|||
Help yourself if you wanna
I'm not gonna stay any longer
You got me retreating into my mind
This isn't always easy
And we can't always be so breezy
But we can't make excuses all the time
So I stay at home in bed and I dream
That I'm in the middle of a crowd and I scream
Help me if you can
I'm one broken, fucked-up man
Help me and my ailing health
Above all
Help me help myself
Finding the streets too crazy
Becoming so fat and lazy
Hurting the ones I love all the time
I wish I could say it was fleeting
But more and more I'm retreating
Coming to terms that I'm past my prime
So I stay at home in bed and I dream
That I'm in the middle of a crowd and I scream
Help me if you can
I'm one broken, fucked-up man
Help me and my ailing health
Above all
Help me help myself
So I stay at home in bed and I dream
That I'm in the middle of a crowd and I scream
Help me if you can
I'm one broken, fucked-up man
Help me and my ailing health
Above all
Help me help myself

A tendency for silence
04:27
|
|||
Whereas you've a propensity towards violence
I have a tendency for silence
You've gotta tell me how you feel (I'm not a mind-reader)
Can we do this without the ordeal
You scratch and claw me every day (as if it's acceptable)
What if I told you there was another way
Stop the shouting
Stop the screaming
Work it out
Whereas you've a propensity towards violence
I have a tendency for silence
I know it's frustrating that I'm calm (you just can't handle it)
But I don't want to come to harm
It's not as though I am aloof (I'm as interested as you)
I see no point in raising the roof
Stop the shouting
Stop the screaming
Work it out
Whereas you've a propensity towards violence
I have a tendency for silence
While you find new expletives by the hour
It's in the quiet that I find power
Stop the shouting
Stop the screaming
Work it out
Whereas you've a propensity towards violence
I have a tendency for silence
While you find new expletives by the hour
It's in the quiet that I find power

Minimalistic
05:55
|
|||
It's not intended to be a race
Take that confusion off your face
No competition, you don't wanna risk it
Just keep it simple and minimalistic
And I
Saw you evolving
And I
Felt the Earth revolving
Keep it still
When you add more, you make it more complex
And there's a chance it won't make any sense
There's a fine line between being artistic
And being OTT, so keep it minimalistic
And I
Saw you evolving
And I
Felt the Earth revolving
Keep it still
Once you're dead, you're made for life
Don't go the way of the knife
And I
Saw you evolving
And I
Felt the Earth revolving
Keep it still
Keep it still
Keep it still
Keep it still
Keep it still
I know you wanna be special
I know you wanna be successful
I know you're ostentatious
But I don't you to disgrace us
I know you wanna be special
I know you wanna be successful
I know you're ostentatious
But I don't you to disgrace us
I know you wanna be special
I know you wanna be successful
I know you're ostentatious
But I don't you to disgrace us
I know you wanna be special
I know you wanna be successful
I know you're ostentatious
But I don't you to disgrace us

I see you
04:16
|
|||
I see you
I see you
Missing you when you're not here
So much pain
Listening to "To the moon and back" and "Kiss the rain"
When you left you said you'd keep me there in your heart
It's the kind of intensive care I need when we're apart
I see you
I see you
Now you're gone, there's a piece of me there with you
I don't feel my total self, don't know what to do
How time slows to a crawl and lights feel so dim
But I know when you return, I'll break into a grin
I see you
I see you
When you come home to me
I know we can make it
The smile on each of our faces
Nobody could fake it
I see you
I see you
I see you
I see you

Distant flickering
05:07
|

Distant flickering
We've all seen it in our mind's eye
Motes of dust
Catching the sunlight
The darkness that surrounds us
Defines the light we seek
The loud and the brash
Define the meek
Distant flickering
It's getting close
It's getting closer
Distant flickering
It's getting close
It's getting closer
Hope is on its way
Help is on its way
In the depths of despair
Your heart beats anyway
Can you truly say that you've been alone
No friends, no family, no
Connection on your phone
Distant flickering
It's getting close
It's getting closer
Distant flickering
It's getting close
It's getting closer
Then the light begins to change
Slowly, you open your eyes
All of those you wished were there are
By your side

Out of the woods
03:31
|
|||
I know you watched me
Watched me all night
I know you watched me
By candlelight
Hit and run or hit and miss
Torment or ecstasy and bliss
Sometimes
You make it out of
You make it out of
Out of the woods
You made it
Sometimes
You make it out of
You make it out of
Out of the woods
I felt you taking
Taking my hand
I know this isn't
Quite what you had planned
I still think back to that first kiss
The butterflies and all this bliss
Sometimes
You make it out of
You make it out of
Out of the woods
You made it
Sometimes
You make it out of
You make it out of
Out of the woods
Sometimes
You make it out of
You make it out of
Out of the woods
You made it
Sometimes
You make it out of
You make it out of
Out of the woods
Hit and run or hit and miss
Torment or ecstasy and bliss
Sometimes
You make it out of
You make it out of
Out of the woods
You made it
Sometimes
You make it out of
You make it out of
Out of the woods
Sometimes
You make it out of
You make it out of
Out of the woods
You made it
Sometimes
You make it out of
You make it out of
Out of the woods

Waking nightmare
07:05
|
|||
I have spent so long asleep
I fell down, down so deep
Now I wake to the touch of your hand
Wake to a unrecognisable land
I can't believe that so much has changed
People acting selfish, deranged
Whatever happened in my head
I wish I could go back that bed
You and I
Could make it
You and I
Can't mistake it
You and I
Could make it
You and I
It's a waking nightmare
And I want to, I want to up and flee
It's a waking nightmare
But at least you are here with me
A government that does not inspire us
It's they who let us down with this virus
It's not just they're incompetent
They see no reason they should repent
Attitudes have changed while they watched
Every job they tried, they botched
People now resorting to violence
Those on high remaining in silence
You and I
Could make it
You and I
Can't mistake it
You and I
Could make it
You and I
It's a waking nightmare
And I want to, I want to up and flee
It's a waking nightmare
But at least you are here with me
You and I
Could make it
You and I
Can't mistake it
You and I
Could make it
You and I
It's a waking nightmare
And I want to, I want to up and flee
It's a waking nightmare
But at least you are here with me
It's a waking nightmare
And I want to, I want to up and flee
It's a waking nightmare
But at least you are here with me
